Ship Manager 
Karriaunna Scotti

Last time on the Seleya:

An emergency call came through for the captain.  Shortly upon receiving it she took one of the shuttles along with OPS, back to the ship.  Not long after she arrived, the small transport ship, Begay, that had dropped off the CTO returned to collect OPS, her daughter and the captain.

Throughout the cavernous place can be heard the subtle pops and whistles of an ancient system put back online.  So far everything is holding as the planets natural geosystem powers the place up like an ancient Earth Christmas tree.  The CEO has left someone behind to closely watch the system while he left along with Garret to join the others on the far side of the shipping yard.

A connection has been found between the people of this planet and one of the nomadic races found throughout the galaxy.  From a photo the FCO found, they were fair of skin with slight points to their ears; resembling Vulcans to him though from a single photo it is hard to tell much.  The language base the computer came up with from the data that Maor had discovered also made that connection.  The FCO also found the living quarters in good condition as if the people had simply left soon to return.

Before leaving, the captain had the team begin removing the bodies from under the cave-in that had destroyed two of the alien ships and begin clearing the area around a partially covered door that resembled a transportation shaft.

On the ship, the first officer has taken the Seleya to check out some debris on the other side of the planet which appear to be very similar to one of the objects taken from the Magna Romans.  Indications suggest it might have been some form of deflector platform which in itself suggested they were trying to protect themselves, probably from the results of their dying sun.  Until they collect the debris, they will not be able to answer more.

After more then two thousand years and scouring storms, it will be very hard to piece together all the events that happened so long ago.

XO Log, Stardate 10910.11: The Captain has been called back to the ship due to a personal issue. Therefore, the charge has been passed to me to continue the investigation. I've instructed the away to continue as they were and to keep me updated.

<<<<<<<<<< Lost Dreams VII >>>>>>>>>>

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::scanning the bodies buried under the debris to try and determine their species::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Sits in his chair on the bridge::

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: on the bridge monitoring the away team ::

SO Lt Rose says:
:: at science, completing her scans on the debris::  XO:  Shall I bring it aboard?

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Nods:: SO: Bring it aboard. I'd like to have a team start running a more thorough scan on it.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::looks around as he waits for the scan results:: Garret: Where'd MacArthur go?

SO Lt Rose says:
:: Informs engineering and the cargo bay of incoming.  Then activates the tractor beams, locking on to it.::

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::Begins to clear debris and realizes he may need help:: All: Can anyone give me hand?

Dean Garret says:
CEO:  He took some of the team over toward that door over there... some form of transportation shaft by the look of the lighted buttons along the frame.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::nods to Garret and turns back to his readings::

ACTION:  The tractor beam latches onto the debris and carefully brings it into cargo bay 2 where it is gently placed before being deactivated.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Glances up from his present location at the direction of the FCO:: FCO: Get some of the security officers to lend you a hand, Ensign. We have plenty of them.

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::Points at two of the security officers:: Security: Can you guys come over and lift some of this debris? ::Some of the heavier objects are lifted::

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: Looks up from console :: XO: I was looking forward to meeting with the Captain, it is unfortunate that she had to leave in such a hurry. I hope she will return soon.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::moves to a console and brings up the open communications channel with the Seleya:: COM: XO: I could use a small team from the Science department down here Lieutenant... we have some buried bones and we need them removing in one piece.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Turns:: CTO: You'll meet the Captain soon enough. In the meantime, could you join the science team down at the platform and try to assess what it was used for? If it had any weapon damage or such, you'd be able to recognize it.

SO Lt Rose says:
XO:  Debris is aboard.  You want me to stay here or join them?

XO Lt Stradiot says:
COM: CEO: A team will be sent down in the shuttle that just got back. It'll be a few moments, but they're on their way.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@COM: XO: Acknowledged, I'll open the doors again so they can drop straight in.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
SO: Would you join the science team leaving for the planet? I can't imagine it would be a long trip, just a simple mail run. ::Smiles lightly::

CTO Ens Morely says:
XO: Yes sir ::Gestures at SO ::

ACTION:  The FCO and his helpers slowly uncover what was originally expected, some form of an elevator.  From the arrows on the door, it only went down from there.

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: heads towards cargo bay ::

SO Lt Rose says:
:. Lifts a brow slightly surprised but more than happy to go down.  Stands.::  XO:  The window for the storm is closing.  We have enough time to take one more team down.  After that, there is no telling when it will clear again.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::taps at the console::

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@To self: Hmm the lift must be at the bottom or the door is jammed shut ::FCO presses the up arrow on the lift console to see if it is working::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Nods:: SO: Understood. I'll be able to monitor the storms and shuttles can come back out again when that time comes around.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Makes his way toward the direction of the FCO:: FCO: Anything new, Ensign?

SO Lt Rose says:
:: As she leaves her station to another, she sends a call down to the shuttle bay to be ready for departure and another call to the team she wants to take down.::

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: Enters cargo bay and begins taking readings ::

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::Glances quickly towards Maor and back to the console:: Maor: Yeah we've found this lift and I'm just trying to establish if it works.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ FCO: Did you map the shaft interior yet using your tricorder? ::Takes a glance inside the shaft:: See how far it goes?

SO Lt Rose says:
:: Slightly out of breath, but really concerned about beating the storm, she arrives at the shuttle bay and heads for the shuttle some engineers are getting ready for departure.::

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@Maor: I'll try that. ::Flips out his tricorder and conducts a scan of the shaft::

@ACTION:  It takes a moment, but soon the planet bay doors grind open, again revealing the night sky, only this time, there are few stars to be seen as the storm begins to return.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Glances around him at the direction of the CEO:: CEO: Lieutenant? ::Waits until he has his attention:: Can you determine a way to divert power to this elevator?

@ ACTION:  A light flashes a moment on the panel the FCO pushed.  After a moment more, it settles and the sounds of grumbling can be heard near them.

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: Growls at his lack of finding anything conclusive so far, and begins to confer with science team ::

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@Maor: Looks like it may have power.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Looks up at the screen and mulls the situation through his head::

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::hears the FCO:: CIV: That good enough?

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Narrows his eyes at the sound of the noise coming from the elevator:: FCO: Indeed. ::Turns his attention back at the CEO's direction:: CEO: Quite.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ FCO: Any luck on your scans?

SO Lt Rose says:
:: As the doors close behind the last person to arrive, she requests from the bridge clearance to leave.::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Quickly responds to the request:: COM: SO: Your all set to leave. ::Opens bay doors knowing that time is of the essence at the moment.::
SO Lt Rose says:
:: receiving clearance, she takes the shuttle out the opening bay doors.::  XO:  Thanks... we should be down in about five minutes, baring the unforeseen.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@COM: XO: You might want to think about hurrying that science team a bit, the storm's rolling in again.

@ ACTION:  The grumbling comes to a halt and the doors start to slide open only to pause with no more then a crack.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
COM: CEO: They're on their way.

SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Takes the ship around to the landing site area, she then descends into the turbulent atmosphere::  All:  Hold tight... this may be rougher then I thought or would want.

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@Maor: The rock below is causing problems with the scan, I will say about half a km

@ ACTION:  The team of scientists have spread out and around the compound gathering notes and recording items except for Tveken who continues to help with getting the bones out, using the shuttles transporter system.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Monitors the storms from the bridge::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ FCO: See if you can get the doors open, use force if necessary.

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: Is getting frustrated at not finding any sign of weapons so far, continues survey of platform ::

SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Struggles with keeping the shuttle on course.::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Frowns as he notices that the Storm is taking a turn for the worse faster than anticipated.:: COM: SO: Be careful...the storm is increasing in intensity.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
COM: SO: Do you think you can make it down there safely?

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::Scans the door for its release switch::

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: notices something on the platform and turns to an Engineer :: Ens_Chips: What do make of all these network nodes on the platform?

SO Runes says:
#COM: XO:  You can say that again.. Lieutenant Rose has her hands full.... if we have any stomachs left over, I will be surprised.

EO Ens Chips says:
:: scans nodes :: CTO: Hmmmm... It appears that this might have been one of many deflector platforms. I believe that at some point there would have been an entire network of these things.

CTO Ens Morely says:
Ens Chips: Are you saying that there's a possibility that these could have covered this area of the planet?

SO Lt Rose says:
# :: Shakes her head and starts to take the shuttle up.::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
COM: SO Runes: Understood.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CEO: Did you try finding the schematics of this place?

EO Ens Chips says:
CTO: No sir... I'm saying they could have covered the entire planet. Like some kind of energy barrier.

SO Runes says:
#COM: XO:  Sir, looks like will be returning.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@CIV: I already sent those to the ship Commander. ::continues to tap at the console, not looking up::

CTO Ens Morely says:
Ens Chips: To keep something in or something out...?

# ACTION:  Two fronts hit the shuttle at the same time, tossing it about like a rag doll before pulling it down to the planets surface.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CEO: Any indication as to where this elevator shaft leads to then?

EO Ens Chips says:
TO: I dunno sir, maybe I could- ::Is cut off by CTO::

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::Using a simple screwdriver he opens the doors panel to find the doors' hydraulic controls and cuts it, releasing fluid. From there he attempts to pry the doors::

CTO Ens Morely says:
Ens Chips: That's ok, I need to inform the XO. Good work Ens Chips.

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@CEO: Nothing on that note sir, but I'm just about to try the doors.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Spins around:: aOPS: Report; condition of the shuttle.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::still not looking up from the console:: CIV: None, it's not even on the schematics.

#ACTION:  The shuttle is lost from sensors.

@ ACTION:  The shaft doors slowly grind open to reveal a standard closet size room for people to enter.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Taps his communication badge:: *XO*: Maor to the Seleya.

CTO Ens Morely says:
::Beams with confidence at finally finding something significant:: *XO*: Morely to Stradiot, I've got something to report.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*CIV*: Go ahead Commander.

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::He puts his hands on the doors and they slowly open, remembering the time he was trapped on a turbolift on the Seleya after a power outage::

@ ACTION:  The howling of the storms can be heard from above as the storm blanks out the skies.  Dust begins to rain down into the compound as the winds try to reach below.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
aOPS: Find that shuttle!

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ *XO*: We're going to need a Hover Probe here, Lieutenant. The FCO has managed to uncover a n elevator shaft which according to the CEO isn't even on the schematics for this place. I'd rather send a probe down the shaft before we venture inside.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*CIV*: We can't get anything down there at the moment, Commander. Storms have covered your particular area. We've lost a shuttle that was on it's way down that we're working on recovering. I suggest closing the doors now.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
*CTO*: Report to the bridge.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Glances up at the direction of the ceiling:: CEO: Why are the doors open, Lieutenant?

CTO Ens Morely says:
*XO*:Yes sir, on my way

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: Leaves cargo bay ::

Tveken says:
@:: Leaving the shuttle, joins Maor at the elevator shaft.::  CIV:  I can tell you this race is defiantly not tied to the Vulcans.  There bone structure in basic is slightly different.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@CIV: I'm expecting a shuttle with some extra hands to clear this debris.

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::The FCO enters the lift pod and begins scanning the interior with his tricorder::

@ ACTION: As the FCO steps in, the lift does an abrupt drop of two meters before stabilizing.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
::Grimaces:: aSO: Can you find anything on the location of that shuttle?

aSO Selven says:
:: shakes his head.::  XO:  No sir.. the storms are interfering and growing.

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CEO: Where is the shuttle now then? ::Stops as he hears the elevator falling down just behind him:: Out loud: What the hell happened? ::Taps his badge:: *FCO*: Maor to MacArthur, are you okay down there?

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::Falling to his feet, he gets up and jumps to grab the floor, but his fingers slip and he falls again::

@ ACTION:  Those below can hear the increasing power of the storms as well as the air beginning to thicken with dust.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@CIV: Good question, it should be here by now.

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::Taps his com badge:: *Maor*: The lift has fallen a few meters and I'm trying to get out!

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@COM: XO: Trigger to Stradiot, what's the status on that shuttle?

XO Lt Stradiot says:
aSO: See if you can figure out a way to get through those storms.

CTO Ens Morely says:
:: Enters Bridge :: XO: sir, the deflector platforms have revealed some interesting information, I'm- :: notices something wrong on the bridge, walks over to console :: XO: Sir, what's going on? :: taps some buttons ::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ *FCO*: Stay put, Ensign. ::Turns to the direction of the CEO:: CEO: Lieutenant, I need your help here. Try to gain remote access on the elevator, see if you can send it back up.

FCO Ens MacArthur says:
@::He jumps once again and finally gets a good grip to climb out the lift pod::

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ ::Motions a few of the security officers and a medic to get near him::

XO Lt Stradiot says:
COM: CEO: I just informed the CIV. We've lost the shuttle on on our sensors. The storm enveloped it before it was able to reach the surface.

aSO Selven says:
XO:  Working on it sir... but we cannot even use the normal enhancers in this case.  The storm would tear them apart.  I do have their original trajectory... they were heading in the right direction before the two fronts met.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
aSO: Projected course after those two fronts?

@ ACTION:  The medic gives the FCO a once over, declaring him fine.

XO Lt Stradiot says:
CTO: I'll inform you in a minute, ensign. We have a situation here.

CEO Lt Trigger says:
@::taps furiously at the console to try and gain control of the elevator:: COM: XO: You told... ::turns to Maor:: CIV: Why the HELL didn't you tell me they lost the shuttle?!?!

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ CEO: I was busy losing officers down elevator shafts, Lieutenant. And he just told me, I had no idea he even meant your shuttle. 

CTO Ens Morely says:
XO: Yes sir!

CIV Cmdr Maor says:
@ FCO: Why did you even get inside the elevator? ::Nods at the direction of the medic's all clear sign::

# ACTION:  The sounds of groans can be heard in the pitch darkness.  Outside can be heard the beating of winds as they rock the shuttle.  Suddenly the emergency light kicks in.
